Hi,
I had a single-disk zpool (export) and was given two new disks for
expanded storage. All three disks are identically sized, no
slices/partitions. My goal is to create a raidz1 configuration of the
three disks, containing the data in the original zpool.
However, I got off on the wrong foot by doing a "zpool add" of the first
disk. Apparently this has simply increased my storage without creating a
raidz config.
Unfortunately, there appears to be no simple way to just remove that
disk now and do a proper raidz create of the other two. Nor am I clear
on how import/export works and whether that's a good way to copy content
from one zpool to another on a single host.
Can somebody guide me? What's the easiest way out of this mess, so that
I can move from what is now a simple two-disk zpool (less than 50% full)
to a three-disk raidz configuration, starting with one unused disk? In
the end I want the three-disk raidz to have the same name (and mount
point) as the original zpool. There must be an easy way to do this.
Thanks for any assistance.

P.S. I would appreciate being kept on the CC list for this thread to
avoid digest mailing delays.
